Energy saving in cooling towers by using variable frequency drives (1)IAEME Publication
This document discusses energy savings in cooling towers by using variable frequency drives (VFDs). It finds that using VFDs to adjust the speed of cooling tower fans based on water temperature can achieve energy savings of 25% annually. A case study is presented of a cooling tower that provides process cooling water to five production plants. Currently the fans operate at a fixed speed all year. Installing VFDs would allow the fan speed to vary to better maintain a constant cooling water temperature despite changing weather conditions and partial loading, improving plant operations. Simulation results are presented showing the cooling water temperature control achieved by varying the fan speed between zero and maximum using VFDs.
Hydraulic characteristics of flow and energy dissipation over stepped spillwayIAEME Publication
This document summarizes an experimental study on the hydraulic characteristics of flow over stepped spillways. Seventy-two experiments were conducted using three types of stepped spillway models with varying downstream slopes and numbers of steps. Water surface profiles, energy dissipation, and pressure distributions were measured. The results showed that increases in relative step height and step length led to higher energy dissipation. Increasing the number of steps and roughness Froude number resulted in lower energy dissipation. An empirical equation was developed to calculate energy dissipation over stepped spillways based on affecting factors.

Study of laboratory water consumptive use and recyclabilityIAEME Publication
This document summarizes a study on laboratory water consumption and recyclability at Osun State University in Nigeria. The researchers evaluated the number of water taps per laboratory, conducted a pilot study that found average laboratory water use per tap was 64.26 liters, and determined water use amounts for laboratory practical sessions. Four laboratories - Industrial Chemistry, Biochemistry, Medical, and Water and Environmental - were selected for detailed influent and effluent analysis based on their water use amounts. Physical, chemical and toxic chemical analyses of the laboratory influent and effluent water found that the Biochemistry laboratory effluent required the greatest treatment for several parameters before it could be recycled. The researchers recommend further treatment and monitoring of parameters of concern
In offshore oil & gas installation, the electrical power system consists of a large distribution
network, generally operating in island mode i.e., without grid support.
The flow through the turbine components is associated with energy losses and hence energy
output from turbine is always less than the input energy. The global performance of turbine is
characterized by its overall efficiency. The casing has spiral shape and hence has swirling flow and
flow is subjected to frictional and vortex losses. The passage in stay ring and distributor has solid
vanes and flow passes through the ducts between the vanes is subjected mostly frictional losses.
Since runner is the most important component of mixed flow turbine and its design i.e. the blade
profile, number of blades plays vital role in overall performance of turbine at all operating regimes.
In the present work the numerical simulation of hydraulic Francis turbine is carried out by using
ANSYS software. The losses in each part of turbine are computed at different operating conditions
by changing the solidity of existing runner. The numerical results for efficiency of existing runner
are validated with experimental values. This study can be used efficiently as a reliable tool for
the practical design and performance analysis of Francis hydraulic turbines.

Virtual Machine Migration Techniques in Cloud Environment: A Surveyijsrd.com
Cloud is an emerging technology in the world of information technology and is built on the key concept of virtualization. Virtualization separates hardware from software and has benefits of server consolidation and live migration. Live migration is a useful tool for migrating OS instances across distant physical of data centers and clusters. It facilitates load balancing, fault management, low-level system maintenance and reduction in energy consumption. In this paper, we survey the major issues of virtual machine live migration. There are various techniques available for live migration and different parameters are considered for migration.
Resumption of virtual machines after adaptive deduplication of virtual machin...IJECEIAES
In cloud computing, load balancing, energy utilization are the critical problems solved by virtual machine (VM) migration. Live migration is the live movement of VMs from an overloaded/underloaded physical machine to a suitable one. During this process, transferring large disk image files take more time, hence more migration and down time. In the proposed adaptive deduplication, based on the image file size, the file undergoes both fixed, variable length deduplication processes. The significance of this paper is resumption of VMs with reunited deduplicated disk image files. The performance measured by calculating the percentage reduction of VM image size after deduplication, the time taken to migrate the deduplicated file and the time taken for each VM to resume after the migration. The results show that 83%, 89.76% reduction overall image size and migration time respectively. For a deduplication ratio of 92%, it takes an overall time of 3.52 minutes, 7% reduction in resumption time, compared with the time taken for the total QCOW2 files with original size. For VMDK files the resumption time reduced by a maximum 17% (7.63 mins) compared with that of for original files.
Resource Allocation using Virtual Machine Migration: A Surveyidescitation
As virtualization is proving to be dominant in
enterprise and organizational networks there is a need for
operators and administrators to pay more attention to live
migration of virtual machines (VMs) with the main objective
of workload balancing, monitoring, fault management, low-
level system maintenance and good performance with minimal
service downtimes. It is also a crucial aspect of cloud computing
that offers strategies to implement the dynamic allocation of
resources. Virtualization also enables virtual machine
migration to eliminate hotspots in data centers .However the
security associated with VMs live migration has not received
thorough analysis. Further, the negative impact on service
levels of running applications is likely to occur during the
live VM migration hence a better understanding of its
implications on the system performance is highly required.
In this survey we explore the security issues involved in live
migration of VMs and demonstrate the importance of security
during the migration process. A model which demonstrates
the cost incurred in reconfiguring a cloud-based environment
in response to the workload variations is studied. It is also
proved that migration cost is acceptable but should not be
neglected, particularly in systems where service availability
and response times are imposed by stringent Service Level
Agreements (SLAs). A system that provides automation of
monitoring and detection of hotspots and determination of
the new mapping of physical to virtual resources and finally
initiates the required migrations based on its observations is
also studied. These are experimented using Xen Virtual
Machine Manager. Migration based resource Managers for
virtualized environments are presented by comparing and
discussing several types of underlying algorithms from
algorithmistic issues point of view.

AUTOMATED VM MIGRATION USING INTELLIGENT LEARNING TECHNIQUEIRJET Journal
This document discusses an approach for automated virtual machine (VM) migration using intelligent learning techniques like fuzzy logic. The goal is to develop a load balancing as a service (LBaaS) software that provides optimal quality of service (QoS). Fuzzy logic is used to decide whether to migrate live VMs or newly requested VMs based on the current state of the VM hosting servers. The live migration technique is employed to balance server loads and ensure uninterrupted service during VM migration with minimal downtime. Two VM hosting servers are set up and connected via a network to act as a cluster. VM requests and resource usage data are sent to the fuzzy logic system which then determines the best placement or migration of VMs based on predefined

This document discusses CPU performance when migrating data from a virtual machine to a physical machine in cloud computing. It first provides background on virtual machines and live migration between physical hosts. It then describes the system design, which involves classifying CPU models and allocating resources per virtual machine. The evaluation section outlines experiments conducted on a system with two quad-core CPUs and 8GB RAM. It found that live migration performance depends on network bandwidth and latency, and that virtualization leads to some degradation compared to non-virtualized systems. The conclusion discusses tradeoffs between management overhead and performance that must be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Cloud Computing has emerged as the most trust worthy and secure technology amongst its users. Migration of
virtual machine is an important aspect of this technology. Migration of instances makes data centers and clusters
handier in the terms of its administration and management. Intrinsically, Migration is done to boost the
processing power of computers and it is done by procuring the power management, load balancing, fault
tolerance, reducing response time and increasing the quality of service. Because the use of this technique is
highly dependent on cloud computing infrastructure architecture in some cloud infrastructure, such as
Eucalyptus the virtual machine migration technique has not been used yet.
Virtual machine placement in a virtualized cloudiaemedu
This document summarizes a research paper that proposes an efficient virtual machine placement algorithm to minimize server utilization and virtual machine migrations in cloud data centers. The algorithm is based on bin packing principles but also considers virtual machine size, network bandwidth, and individual virtual machine completion times. The authors model the virtual machine placement problem as a bin packing problem and modify existing bin packing heuristics. They conduct experiments to analyze the performance of their algorithm and show it can minimize the number of migrations needed while reducing downtime during migrations.
This document presents a master's thesis project that proposes algorithms for energy-efficient and traffic-aware virtual machine management in cloud computing. It introduces dynamic virtual machine consolidation as a way to reduce power consumption in data centers by migrating VMs between hosts. The author develops new algorithms that improve upon existing approaches by considering both CPU utilization and communication traffic between VMs when consolidating and placing VMs on hosts. The algorithms aim to increase energy efficiency while also reducing communication latency. The performance of the new algorithms is evaluated and shown to significantly reduce energy consumption, VM migrations, and SLA violations compared to existing approaches.
Cloud vendor lock-in is one of
the major problems in cloud computing where the
customer is locked to a particular vendor so that it
will be difficult to migrate from one cloud to the
other. The problem is that once an app has been
developed based on a particular cloud service
provider’s API that apps is bound to that provider
as a result of which migration from one cloud to
the other becomes more complex because of
changes in architectures of different cloud service
vendors[2]. The problem can be solved by
providing a standardized way of interacting with
cloud service providers taking many factors into
consideration and by isolating each individual
module involved in the cloud service provider’s
API and bringing out the common things and
uniting them together so that in future any CSP
will have to obey that specific standards and build
their APIs without the need of creating a new
standard that makes migration from/to that CSP
complex.

Hardware Support for Efficient Virtualization

Abstract
Virtual machines have been used since the 1960’s in creative
ways. From multiplexing expensive mainframes to providing
backwards compatibility for customers migrating to new hard-
ware, virtualization has allowed users to maximize their usage of
limited hardware resources. Despite virtual machines falling by
the way-side in the 1980’s with the rise of the minicomputer,we
are now seeing a revival of virtualization with virtual machines
being used for security, isolation, and testing among others.
With so many creative uses for virtualization, ensuring high
performance for applications running in a virtual machine be-
comes critical. In this paper, we survey current research to-
wards this end, focusing on the hardware support which en-
ables efficient virtualization. Both Intel and AMD have incor-
porated explicit support for virtualization into their CPUde-
signs. While this can simplify the design of a stand alone virtual
machine monitor (VMM), techniques such asparavirtualization
and hosted VMM’s are still quite effective in supporting virtual
machines.
We compare and contrast current approaches to efficient vir-
tualization, drawing parallels to techniques developed byIBM
over thirty years ago. In addition to virtualizing the CPU, we
also examine techniques focused on virtualizing I/O and the
memory management unit (MMU). Where relevant, we identify
shortcomings in current research and provide our own thoughts
on the future direction of the virtualization field.
1 Introduction
The current virtualization renaissance has spurred excit-
ing new research with virtual machines on both the soft-
ware and the hardware side. Both Intel and AMD have
incorporated explicit support for virtualization into their
CPU designs. While this can simplify the design of a
stand alone virtual machine monitor (VMM), techniques
such asparavirtualizationand hosted VMM’s are still
quite effective in supporting virtual machines.
This revival in virtual machine usage is driven by many
motivating factors. Untrusted applications can be safely
sandboxed in a virtual machine providing added security
and reliability to a system. Data and performance isola-
tion can be provided through virtualization as well. Se-
curity, reliability, and isolation are all critical components
for data centers trying to maximize the usage of their hard-
ware resources by coalescing multiple servers to run on a
single physical server. Virtual machines can further in-
crease reliability and robustness by supporting live migra-
tion from one server to another upon hardware failure.
Software developers can also take advantage of virtual
machines in many ways. Writing code that is portable
across multiple architectures requires extensive testingon
each target platform. Rather than maintaining multiple
physical machines for each platform, testing can be done
within a virtual machi ...
A Dynamically-adaptive Resource Aware Load Balancing Scheme for VM migrations...IOSR Journals
This document proposes a dynamically adaptive resource aware load balancing scheme for virtual machine (VM) migrations in datacenters. It begins with an introduction to virtualization and the increasing demand for flexible resource management in datacenters. It then discusses VM architecture, types of VM migrations including pre-copy and post-copy, and challenges with VM migrations such as latency, network bandwidth usage, and load balancing. The document proposes an algorithm for efficient VM migrations that is aware of resource availability and adapts to dynamic load balancing needs. The algorithm uses thresholds to identify overloaded and underloaded physical machines and selects the most overloaded VM to migrate to the most underloaded physical machine if resource requirements are met.
An Enhanced Throttled Load Balancing Approach for Cloud EnvironmentIRJET Journal
The document proposes an enhanced throttled load balancing approach for cloud environments. It discusses existing load balancing techniques like round robin, weighted round robin, and throttled approaches. It identifies that existing throttled approaches can lead to overloading as they do not consider task size when assigning tasks to virtual machines. The proposed approach aims to improve performance for cloud users by enhancing the basic throttled mapping approach to better distribute tasks among resources. The approach is evaluated using the CloudAnalyst simulator and results show it performs better than original techniques.

Role of Virtual Machine Live Migration in Cloud Load BalancingIOSR Journals
Abstract: Cloud computing has touched almost every field of the life. Hence number of cloud application
consumers is increasing every day and so as the number of application request to the cloud provider. This leads
increment of workload in many of the cloud nodes. The motive to use load balancing concepts in cloud
environment is to efficiently utilize available resources keeping in mind that no any single system is heavily
loaded or not a single system is idle during the active phase of the request completion. Even though cloud
computing being a software facility most often, how does it actually performs well in heavily loaded
environment at processor level, is discussed in the paper. This paper aims to throw some light on what is cloud
load balancing and what is the role of Virtual machine migration in improving it.
Keywords: Cloud load balancing, Live Migration, Migration, Virtualization, Virtual machine.
ANALYSIS ON LOAD BALANCING ALGORITHMS IMPLEMENTATION ON CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIR...AM Publications
Cloud computing means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet instead of your computer's hard drive. The cloud is just a metaphor for the Internet. The elements involved in cloud computing are clients, data center and distributed server. One of the main problems in cloud computing is load balancing. Balancing the load means to distribute the workload among several nodes evenly so that no single node will be overloaded. Load can be of any type that is it can be CPU load, memory capacity or network load. In this paper we presented an architecture of load balancing and algorithm which will further improve the load balancing problem by minimizing the response time. In this paper, we have proposed the enhanced version of existing regulated load balancing approach for cloud computing by comping the Randomization and greedy load balancing algorithm. To check the performance of proposed approach, we have used the cloud analyst simulator (Cloud Analyst). Through simulation analysis, it has been found that proposed improved version of regulated load balancing approach has shown better performance in terms of cost, response time and data processing time.
LIVE VIRTUAL MACHINE MIGRATION USING SHADOW PAGING IN CLOUD COMPUTINGcsandit
Cloud Computing shares computing resources to execute application. Cloud systems provide high-specification resources in the form of services, leading to the provision of user convenience and greater ease for personal-computer users; however, expansions of the cloudsystem service necessitate a corresponding enhancement of the technology that is used for server-resource management. In this paper, by monitoring the resources of a cloud server, we sought to identify the causes of server overload and degradation, followed by the running of a dynamic-page-migration mechanism. According to this process, we designed the proposed migration architecture for the minimization of user inconvenience
The document outlines a methodology for sizing virtual machines when migrating enterprise applications from non-virtualized to virtualized servers. It involves monitoring application CPU utilization and transaction times in the non-virtualized environment. Queuing models are then used to evaluate deployment scenarios and identify the minimum number of virtual CPUs needed for each application's VM to maintain acceptable performance levels once virtualized. The methodology aims to determine optimal virtual CPU allocations based on actual physical resource needs rather than guesses, to avoid overcommitting resources and performance issues.

BROAD UNEXPOSED SKILLS OF TRANSGENDER ENTREPRENEURSIAEME Publication
Since ages gender difference is always a debatable theme whether caused by nature, evolution or environment. The birth of a transgender is dreadful not only for the child but also for their parents. The pain of living in the wrong physique and treated as second class victimized citizen is outrageous and fully harboured with vicious baseless negative scruples. For so long, social exclusion had perpetuated inequality and deprivation experiencing ingrained malign stigma and besieged victims of crime or violence across their life spans. They are pushed into the murky way of life with a source of eternal disgust, bereft sexual potency and perennial fear. Although they are highly visible but very little is known about them. The common public needs to comprehend the ravaged arrogance on these insensitive souls and assist in integrating them into the mainstream by offering equal opportunity, treat with humanity and respect their dignity. Entrepreneurship in the current age is endorsing the gender fairness movement. Unstable careers and economic inadequacy had inclined one of the gender variant people called Transgender to become entrepreneurs. These tiny budding entrepreneurs resulted in economic transition by means of employment, free from the clutches of stereotype jobs, raised standard of living and handful of financial empowerment. Besides all these inhibitions, they were able to witness a platform for skill set development that ignited them to enter into entrepreneurial domain. This paper epitomizes skill sets involved in trans-entrepreneurs of Thoothukudi Municipal Corporation of Tamil Nadu State and is a groundbreaking determination to sightsee various skills incorporated and the impact on entrepreneurship.

The main objective of this study is to analyze the impact of aspects of Organizational Culture on the Effectiveness of the Performance Management System (PMS) in the Health Care Organization at Thanjavur. Organizational Culture and PMS play a crucial role in present-day organizations in achieving their objectives. PMS needs employees’ cooperation to achieve its intended objectives. Employees' cooperation depends upon the organization’s culture. The present study uses exploratory research to examine the relationship between the Organization's culture and the Effectiveness of the Performance Management System. The study uses a Structured Questionnaire to collect the primary data. For this study, Thirty-six non-clinical employees were selected from twelve randomly selected Health Care organizations at Thanjavur. Thirty-two fully completed questionnaires were received.
Living in 21st century in itself reminds all of us the necessity of police and its administration. As more and more we are entering into the modern society and culture, the more we require the services of the so called ‘Khaki Worthy’ men i.e., the police personnel. Whether we talk of Indian police or the other nation’s police, they all have the same recognition as they have in India. But as already mentioned, their services and requirements are different after the like 26th November, 2008 incidents, where they without saving their own lives has sacrificed themselves without any hitch and without caring about their respective family members and wards. In other words, they are like our heroes and mentors who can guide us from the darkness of fear, militancy, corruption and other dark sides of life and so on. Now the question arises, if Gandhi would have been alive today, what would have been his reaction/opinion to the police and its functioning? Would he have some thing different in his mind now what he had been in his mind before the partition or would he be going to start some Satyagraha in the form of some improvement in the functioning of the police administration? Really these questions or rather night mares can come to any one’s mind, when there is too much confusion is prevailing in our minds, when there is too much corruption in the society and when the polices working is also in the questioning because of one or the other case throughout the India. It is matter of great concern that we have to thing over our administration and our practical approach because the police personals are also like us, they are part and parcel of our society and among one of us, so why we all are pin pointing towards them.

Globally, Millions of dollars were spent by the organizations for employing skilled Information Technology (IT) professionals. It is costly to replace unskilled employees with IT professionals possessing technical skills and competencies that aid in interconnecting the business processes. The organization’s employment tactics were forced to alter by globalization along with technological innovations as they consistently diminish to remain lean, outsource to concentrate on core competencies along with restructuring/reallocate personnel to gather efficiency. As other jobs, organizations or professions have become reasonably more appropriate in a shifting employment landscape, the above alterations trigger both involuntary as well as voluntary turnover. The employee view on jobs is also afflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic along with the employee-driven labour market. So, having effective strategies is necessary to tackle the withdrawal rate of employees. By associating Emotional Intelligence (EI) along with Talent Management (TM) in the IT industry, the rise in attrition rate was analyzed in this study. Only 303 respondents were collected out of 350 participants to whom questionnaires were distributed. From the employees of IT organizations located in Bangalore (India), the data were congregated. A simple random sampling methodology was employed to congregate data as of the respondents. Generating the hypothesis along with testing is eventuated.

By implementing talent management strategy, organizations would have the option to retain their skilled professionals while additionally working on their overall performance. It is the course of appropriately utilizing the ideal individuals, setting them up for future top positions, exploring and dealing with their performance, and holding them back from leaving the organization. It is employee performance that determines the success of every organization. The firm quickly obtains an upper hand over its rivals in the event that its employees having particular skills that cannot be duplicated by the competitors. Thus, firms are centred on creating successful talent management practices and processes to deal with the unique human resources. Firms are additionally endeavouring to keep their top/key staff since on the off chance that they leave; the whole store of information leaves the firm's hands. The study's objective was to determine the impact of talent management on organizational performance among the selected IT organizations in Chennai. The study recommends that talent management limitedly affects performance. On the off chance that this talent is appropriately management and implemented properly, organizations might benefit as much as possible from their maintained assets to support development and productivity, both monetarily and non-monetarily.
A STUDY OF VARIOUS TYPES OF LOANS OF SELECTED PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS...IAEME Publication
Banking regulations act of India, 1949 defines banking as “acceptance of deposits for the purpose of lending or investment from the public, repayment on demand or otherwise and withdrawable through cheques, drafts order or otherwise”, the major participants of the Indian financial system are commercial banks, the financial institution encompassing term lending institutions. Investments institutions, specialized financial institution and the state level development banks, non banking financial companies (NBFC) and other market intermediaries such has the stock brokers and money lenders are among the oldest of the certain variants of NBFC and the oldest market participants. The asset quality of banks is one of the most important indicators of their financial health. The Indian banking sector has been facing severe problems of increasing Non- Performing Assets (NPAs). The NPAs growth directly and indirectly affects the quality of assets and profitability of banks. It also shows the efficiency of banks credit risk management and the recovery effectiveness. NPA do not generate any income, whereas, the bank is required to make provisions for such as assets that why is a double edge weapon. This paper outlines the concept of quality of bank loans of different types like Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of selected public and private sector banks. This study is highlighting problems associated with the role of commercial bank in financing Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SME). The overall objective of the research was to assess the effect of the financing provisions existing for the setting up and operations of MSMEs in the country and to generate recommendations for more robust financing mechanisms for successful operation of the MSMEs, in turn understanding the impact of MSME loans on financial institutions due to NPA. There are many research conducted on the topic of Non- Performing Assets (NPA) Management, concerning particular bank, comparative study of public and private banks etc. In this paper the researcher is considering the aggregate data of selected public sector and private sector banks and attempts to compare the NPA of Housing, Agriculture and MSME loans in state Haryana of public and private sector banks. The tools used in the study are average and Anova test and variance. The findings reveal that NPA is common problem for both public and private sector banks and is associated with all types of loans either that is housing loans, agriculture loans and loans to SMES. NPAs of both public and private sector banks show the increasing trend. In 2010-11 GNPA of public and private sector were at same level it was 2% but after 2010-11 it increased in many fold and at present there is GNPA in some more than 15%. It shows the dark area of Indian banking sector.

ROLE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA - PROBLEMS AND ...IAEME Publication
The majority of the population in India lives in villages. The village is the back bone of the country. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Developing the rural economy is one of the key indicators towards a country’s success. Whether it be the need to look after the welfare of the farmers or invest in rural infrastructure, Governments have to ensure that rural development isn’t compromised. The economic development of our country largely depends on the progress of rural areas and the standard of living of rural masses. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Rural entrepreneurship is based on stimulating local entrepreneurial talent and the subsequent growth of indigenous enterprises. It recognizes opportunity in the rural areas and accelerates a unique blend of resources either inside or outside of agriculture. Rural entrepreneurship brings an economic value to the rural sector by creating new methods of production, new markets, new products and generate employment opportunities thereby ensuring continuous rural development. Social Entrepreneurship has the direct and primary objective of serving the society along with the earning profits. So, social entrepreneurship is different from the economic entrepreneurship as its basic objective is not to earn profits but for providing innovative solutions to meet the society needs which are not taken care by majority of the entrepreneurs as they are in the business for profit making as a sole objective. So, the Social Entrepreneurs have the huge growth potential particularly in the developing countries like India where we have huge societal disparities in terms of the financial positions of the population. Still 22 percent of the Indian population is below the poverty line and also there is disparity among the rural & urban population in terms of families living under BPL. 25.7 percent of the rural population & 13.7 percent of the urban population is under BPL which clearly shows the disparity of the poor people in the rural and urban areas. The need to develop social entrepreneurship in agriculture is dictated by a large number of social problems. Such problems include low living standards, unemployment, and social tension. The reasons that led to the emergence of the practice of social entrepreneurship are the above factors. The research problem lays upon disclosing the importance of role of social entrepreneurship in rural development of India. The paper the tendencies of social entrepreneurship in India, to present successful examples of such business for providing recommendations how to improve situation in rural areas in terms of social entrepreneurship development. Indian government has made some steps towards development of social enterprises, social entrepreneurship, and social in- novation, but a lot remains to be improved.

Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.
Diese Themen werden behandelt
- Reduzierung der Lizenzkosten durch Auffinden und Beheben von Fehlkonfigurationen und überflüssigen Konten
- Wie funktionieren CCB- und CCX-Lizenzen wirklich?
- Verstehen des DLAU-Tools und wie man es am besten nutzt
- Tipps für häufige Problembereiche, wie z. B. Team-Postfächer, Funktions-/Testbenutzer usw.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAUpanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
